Title: Funny Comcast Commercial
Post by: Rico on August 25, 2007, 09:42:15 AM
Commercial for Comcast Digital Voice.  Not sure what it is, but when the Asian guy on the phone says, "Sorry Roger, you tiger now," it cracks me up every time.

I showed this commercial to the gang in my office. The guys with tattoos thought it was pretty funny, the other guys didn't get it.  So I guess today's question could be "How many of us have gotten tattoos and are any Trek related?"
Worf with a "Death Before Dishonor" sounds like a natural.

I don't have any tattoos (at least not yet).  I think one of the reasons I find it so funny is I imagine this guy visiting China or Asia and getting all those stripe tattoos and then coming back home and realizing what he has done.  "You tiger now Roger!"

I have 2 but neither are Trek related. I was thinking of getting the insignia of the rebel alliance for awhile but I think the time for me getting more tattoos have passed.

I'll let you all in on a little secret I've been toying with getting a tattoo for awhile.  My wife Lynn isn't thrilled by the idea but what I am thinking of doing won't be something huge (not like Roger for sure).  It's slightly Trek related in a little way.  Going to keep it a surprise for now.

Well to reassure you Rico, they are not as painful to get as people let on. It's basically like someone is flicking you with an elastic over and over again. After that there's about 2 weeks of maintenance and then you can forget about them.

The pain isn't really a big concern.  Especially since I was thinking of something pretty small and simple in design.  Got a birthday in a few months, maybe I'll treat myself!

Yeah I've been wanting to get one for a while now.. I have a friend how does them professionally. I just don't know what I want. Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Firefly ... maybe I'll just get five, one of each. :)

Let  it be an extension of who you are - because your going to live with it. When I got mine it was like getting married all over again, the next morning for just a moment I looked in the mirror and thought "What have I done! Then as it sank-in I realized "Oh yeah everythings cool, in fact it's better"
